Reporting Scams/Fraud in the United States

  1. Report to Local Police FIRST – they may be able to recover your money! Do a Google search for your town to find your local police
  2. U.S. Secret Service – the Secret Service wants to talk to you
  3. U.S. Federal Trade Commission at https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/#/?orgcode=SCARS – the FTC will send a copy of your report to the FBI, so you don’t have to bother.

♦ SCARS no longer recommends reporting to the FBI

♦ NEVER REPORT YOUR CRIME TO ANY PRIVATE FOR-PROFIT COMPANY – THEY ARE ONLY INTERESTED IN EXPLOITING YOU
